The rise of "fake abortion clinics" in Ohio represents a serious threat to women's rights to make free and informed decisions about their reproductive health. These clinics intentionally deceive pregnant women into believing they offer comprehensive women's health services when, in reality, they provide only pregnancy tests accompanied by aggressive anti-abortion propaganda. Such tactics undermine women's rights to privacy and decision-making autonomy. State attorneys general must take decisive action to challenge these deceptive practices under business regulations. It is essential to hold these clinics accountable while respecting the First Amendment rights of anti-abortion groups.
